Have you been keeping up with the DNC leaks?

The ones that state that the DNC didn't like the outsider candidate that had joined their party for all of five minutes before he started harrumphing about how evil the establishment was? In other news, water is wet.

"Didn't like" is an interesting way to summarize it.

It's not that they didn't like him, that's to be expected. It's that they claimed to be fair and not pro-any candidate. Obviously they were biased and everybody could tell, but how long and how hard they lied. Then they expect us to trust them.

Bernie isn't a Democrat though. He signed on with the Democrats so he could use their platform for greater exposure. It doesn't make him a Democrat. The DNC is for Democrats.

I voted for Bernie, and I like Bernie, and I wish he was the nominee, but let's be real here, he was having to work within a system that's broken for third party candidates.

This comment thread was originally about the media. Are you just going to skirt around their involvement?

The media's involvement in what?

If you're going to talk about The Media™, I read some interesting stuff about Trump not actually being as popular as the media were painting him until way into his campaign--basically, everyone bought the hype; much of his early support didn't exist until after news reports said it did.

AYRT

I don't care what Bernie is or what Bernie is not. I 100% understand why they were not behind him and why they were dead set on coronating Hillary. Their motives are not my point.

The DNC and media told us to our faces and lied long and hard that they were fair and not pro-any candidate.

Fool me twice, shame on me. What reason should I trust them for?

The comment proves that they didn't like him after he started telling his followers they were corrupt when his own lack of organization cost him anything and giving a pathetic non-condemnation of his followers' violence in Nevada.

There is still not a single shred of proof that they treated Sanders any differently, just that they didn't like him after he behaved in an unlikeable manner. You can prove they didn't like him, but you can't prove that they weren't fair. Especially when those emails show them reaching out to him multiple times

And I'd love to know what sort of "coronation" involves getting more votes than your opponent. Especially when Bernie fans are really hoping that the superdelegates will, for the first time, completely ignore the popular vote and just hand the candidacy over to the guy who couldn't get his shit together.

Side question: where are Bernie's tax returns? Why has the FEC report of illegal donations been growing to over 1000 pages? When is he going to pay back that money he illegally spent to take his family on vacation to the Vatican?

This comment applies equally to the DNC and the mainstream media.

But mainstream media should be particularly ashamed.
